'hg log FILE1 FILE2' order depends on the order of the files?

[Stanislau Hlebik]

Hey.

We have a library that runs hg and parses its output. Today in one of the unittests I've noticed weird behavior: hg log output order depends on the order of the filenames.

Unfortunately , I wasn't able to reproduce it outside of test environment. I can reproduce it in the test environment easily though.

Has anybody experienced the same problem? Or does anybody have ideas on how to debug it?

Below are the commands and theirs output (repo has two commits, file2.txt and file3.txt both were changed in each commit):

# file2.txt, file3.txt
command [u'hg', u'log', u'-r', u'reverse(::0902ae52b1289c6e88bbbb55eb59464a1ebbce91)', u'-T', u'{node} {p1node} {p2node}\x01', 'file2.txt', 'file3.txt']

history [u'77a1445b59a5dcc7ea92be275fc3457cba9615b1 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000', u'0902ae52b1289c6e88bbbb55eb59464a1eb    bce91 77a1445b59a5dcc7ea92be275fc3457cba9615b1 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000', u'']
